Job Description
We're looking for a VP, Engineering to lead our data and software engineering efforts. This role demands a leader who bridges the gap between product vision and technical execution. You will translate complex requirements into a reliable, performant data platform that powers our analytics products. You must balance immediate product velocity with long-term architectural health.

- Experience scaling early-stage technical organizations; ability to zoom into a specific technical problem and zoom out to define long-term strategy within the same day.
- Have worked closely with Data Science teams to productionize R&D. Have direct experience with analytics products, and a deep passion not only for the architecture but also the business logic.
- Managed remote and nearshore teams effectively while maintaining a unified "one team" culture across different geographies.
- Built products that utilize data enrichment and privacy frameworks, such as clean rooms and data sharing compliance.
- Experience in maximizing team output by structuring and resourcing teams across parallel priorities (i.e. squads).
- Experience maintaining productive relationships with technical and non-technical stakeholders, and founders and executives.
- Strong point of view on how to best leverage AI technologies to accelerate development velocity while maintaining high product quality.
